“This site sure has changed in the 15 years I have been ehre.”

A lot of people feel burned by the Republican establishment. For six years, the GOP held the white House (Bush) and control of both houses of Congress. For the past two years, control of both houses once again. We’ve heard a lot of great “conservative” rhetoric, much more reliably conservative than what Trump is saying. But what did they do? Worse than nothing - they governed like liberals.

After that, you’re still looking to hear conservative rhetoric, and you’ll be satisfied? Not me, that’s why I’m looking as someone who’s results-oriented, and not part of the establishment in-crowd. Trump.

Donald Trump IS the establishment. He’s the Democrat establishment. He has heavily favored them, year after year.

He’s never been a Reagan conservative.

He may be against Bushies, sure, as are all Tea Party conservatives, but he’s altogether not a lover of liberty and the constitution.

So you choose someone who sounds like a liberal Democrat? Result oriented? Yeah, but what result. Trump is a political shapeshifter.

Your comment has me confused. I have been here more than 15 years and the people posting on this site has changed. I am NOT a Cruz supporter, I actually haven't decided who I will vote for in the primaries. But I couldn't let your remark go by without comment.

After that, you're still looking to hear conservative rhetoric, and you'll be satisfied? Not me, that's why I'm looking as someone who's results-oriented, and not part of the establishment in-crowd. Trump.

Please give me a list of the Conservative results that Trump has produced. Not rhetoric, results. It sounds to me that you have settled for conservative rhetoric from someone who has espoused liberal policies and supported liberal politicians until a few years ago.

I have asked this of several Trump supporters on this site. I have been insulted and ignored, but I have never gotten an answer except that he is rich. Rich is wonderful, but there are many rich liberals.
